Sacramento Industrial Accident Lawyers

Helping You Get the Worker's Compensation Benefits You Need

Industrial accidents can be extremely serious and often cause major injuries to victims who are involved in them. Fortunately, if you have been hurt in an industrial accident, you may be able to recover workers' compensation benefits as you focus on recovering and returning to work.

At Smolich and Smolich, our Sacramento industrial accident lawyers have been successfully representing injured victims for more than four decades. Whether you have suffered a brain or head injury, spinal cord injury, repetitive trauma, or anything in between, count on us to stand up for your rights and zealously pursue the compensation you need.

We are able to represent workers who have been injured due to:

  • Punch press and other industrial equipment accidents
  • Welding accidents
  • Falls from ladders and other heights
  • Chemical exposure
  • Forklift accidents
  • Defective machinery
  • Plant explosions

Dangers of Industrial Occupations

Industrial work is often very dangerous. Not only does it involve punch presses and other equipment that is used repetitively, but there is often an emphasis on production that pushes industrial workers to move as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, this can be a recipe for disaster.

Some of the many catastrophic injuries suffered in industrial accidents include:

  • Crush injuries
  • Broken bones
  • Amputations
  • Eye and vision loss
  • Traumatic brain injuries

Industrial occupations carry a higher risk of catastrophic injury than other jobs. In fact, the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that fatal industrial accidents involving contact with objects or equipment increased by 13% in 2018, driven by a 39% increase in workers caught in running machinery and a 17% increase in workers struck by falling objects or equipment. Despite the inherent risk, employers still have a responsibility to provide the safest workplace possible, including the proper facilities, training, and equipment. Unfortunately, many employers fall far short of this duty despite federal regulations.

A Caring & Aggressive Legal Team at Your Side

When an industrial accident happens, we are prepared to step in. When workers' compensation claims are denied, we will fight back. If an insurance company tries to force an industrial worker back to work before workplace injuries have healed completely, we will take the steps necessary to prevent that worker from being endangered further. If the severity of the disability precludes a return to work, we will fight to protect our client's rights and maximize the compensation through multiple benefit recovery, including third-party negligence claims.

  • "Thank you Sarah and team!"
    I needed to apply for disability and knew nothing about how to go about it. Sarah called me and explained the process and assured me everything would be okay. Her staff went online to fill out my application. She and Marlena kept me updated every step of the way. Within a short time a decision was made in my favor. I cannot tell you how many sleepless nights I had prior to meeting with the team. I would recommend them to anyone who needs help in this area. Thank you so much for all your hard work. Without you I could have never done this.

  • "You were so proactive and informative, you really did take away so much of my stress during the whole process."
    I sincerely apologize for the delay! I truly thought I had already sent this off to almost 3 months ago! Thank goodness I had someone helping me clean and organize the apartment last week. She found your letter behind my bookcase. I would like to take this opportunity to once again thank you for your support and dedication throughout my case. You were a true blessing to me. You were so proactive and informative, you really did take away so much of my stress during the whole process. Just the fact that you returned a call so promptly was a very big deal to me. It let me know that I mattered to you, Sarah, and the firm. Thanks to the two of you I am finally settled in my own apartment and my mom was able to finally retire. So again, thank you from the depths of my heart for everything that you personally and your firm have done for me. You were true angels in my tie of need.

  • "I am so happy to have such knowledgeable and helpful people to help during this difficult time. Sam was super responsive and always willing to answer questions, regardless how big or small."
    My circumstances were a bit unusual - my husband applied for Social Security Disability, but unfortunately passed away during the review process. Sam and Sarah worked diligently to see the case through to the end, and provide our family the benefits we were owed. A special thank you to Sam, he was always very responsive, willing to go above and beyond, and willing to answer questions whether big or small. Thank you, Smolich and Smolich!
    Smolich and Smolich is so helpful!

  • "They know what it takes to win. Thank you all so much!"
    Thank you so much for your help. I was denied twice by social security disability. They are the most diligent and wonderfully. Yes it takes a while to get a hearing. If it wasn't for the great staff and attorneys here, I would have never been approved for disability. It was the best Christmas gift i received. They know what it takes to win. Thank you all so much!
